Pricing, version numbers, context-window sizes, and compliance certifications change frequently. Where stated they are accurate as of the as_of date and should be confirmed with the vendor before any procurement or compliance decision. Where they could not be stated confidently they are omitted rather than guessed.

The governance question this raises

Gong records calls. The recording consent question that applies to Otter.ai applies equally here. In enterprise sales, all-party consent disclosure is typically handled by the automated 'this call is being recorded' announcement, but the mechanism needs to be verified for each jurisdiction where sales calls originate or are received. The additional Gong-specific question is what happens to competitor-mention data that Gong surfaces: that data is drawn from customer calls, and the terms governing how Gong uses it across its customer base require reading.

No compliance certifications are listed here. Certification status is vendor-specific and time-specific, so it is stated only where verified rather than assumed. Check the vendor’s trust centre and confirm it covers the specific tier you are buying.
